AT&T: Cheap Cash Flow, Big Yield — A Low-Drama Way to Capture Upside

AT&T: Cheap Cash Flow, Big Yield — A Low-Drama Way to Capture Upside

AT&T is priced like a slow-growth utility but still generates meaningful cash flow and covers a chunky dividend. At $25.52 shares trade at roughly 8x earnings and an EV/EBITDA near 6.5 — valuations that don't require heroic operational improvement for a 20%+ move. This trade idea lays out a mid-term swing entry with concrete levels, catalysts, and …

Foster (FSTR): H2 Recovery + Higher-Margin Mix Should Re-rate the Stock

Foster (FSTR): H2 Recovery + Higher-Margin Mix Should Re-rate the Stock

L.B. Foster (FSTR) is a small-cap industrial with accelerating Rail and Infrastructure revenue, improving margin mix, and a compact balance sheet. Recent results and investor presentations point to a second-half recovery. At roughly $395M market cap, an EV/sales of 0.78 and about $47M in free cash flow suggest upside if management converts backlog …

Why I Sold Strategy (MSTR) and Put Money Elsewhere - A Short Trade Plan

Why I Sold Strategy (MSTR) and Put Money Elsewhere - A Short Trade Plan

Bitcoin's bounce has restored a lot of headline value to bitcoin-linked stocks, but Strategy Inc (MSTR) has started to crystallize gains and change its treasury playbook. That shift, combined with a crowded long position, near-term technical overbought signals, and legal/financial overhangs, creates a compelling tactical short. This note lays out t…

Buy Zhihu on the Q2 Reset: Cheap Valuation and Improving Unit Economics

Buy Zhihu on the Q2 Reset: Cheap Valuation and Improving Unit Economics

Zhihu’s Q2 print showed a small revenue decline and a return to GAAP loss, but paid-content and IP operations expanded, operating expenses fell 13%, and management continued buybacks. At a market cap of roughly $268m and a PB of 0.45, the stock already prices in significant risk. This trade targets a rebound as margins stabilize and monetization fr…

Murphy USA: Position for Elevated Fuel Margins in H2 2026

Murphy USA: Position for Elevated Fuel Margins in H2 2026

Murphy USA (MUSA) is a trade to consider on the expectation that fuel margins will stay elevated into H2 2026. The stock trades with a mid-teens P/E, strong free cash flow and an attractive EV/EBITDA multiple for a high-return retailer. I lay out an entry, stop and target for a long-term tactical trade and the key risks that could derail the thesis…

MercadoLibre: Brazil Fears Are Priced In — Tactical Long Setup

MercadoLibre: Brazil Fears Are Priced In — Tactical Long Setup

MercadoLibre is trading well below its 52-week high after a correction that amplified concerns tied to Brazil. The company reported blowout revenue growth and strong fintech traction; balance sheet and cash flow strength support a tactical long. Entry at $1947.26, stop at $1800, target $2500 over a long term (180 trading days) horizon.

ACI Worldwide: A Quiet Payments Compounder Ready for the Next Leg Up

ACI Worldwide is a profitable, cash-generative payments software company trading at a reasonable multiple with a clear path to higher recurring revenue and margins. Recent M&A, product wins in open banking and a large addressable market for real-time payments support a long trade. Entry at $53.00, stop at $48.00, target $65.00 over a long-term (180…

Vontier: Earnings Power Is Stronger Than The Top Line Suggests

Vontier: Earnings Power Is Stronger Than The Top Line Suggests

Vontier’s recent top-line stagnation masks a healthier earnings and free-cash-flow profile. With FCF of $384.8M, EPS near $2.57 and an EV/EBITDA of 8.9, the balance between operational leverage and a still-manageable balance sheet makes a tactical long where upside to analyst targets looks reachable and downside is containable with a tight stop.

Nvidia Just Obliterated the Bear Case — Time to Buy the Dip

Nvidia Just Obliterated the Bear Case — Time to Buy the Dip

Nvidia's 08/26/2026 quarter blew past expectations: $96.2B revenue (106% YoY), $29.2B adjusted net income, and management guiding to $108B for the next quarter. The market has briefly priced in deceleration despite record profits; that disconnect creates an asymmetric risk/reward for a disciplined long with a $223 entry, $200 stop and $300 target o…

Joby Aviation: Dilution Risk Makes This a Tactical Short

Joby Aviation: Dilution Risk Makes This a Tactical Short

Joby has industry-leading progress on FAA certification and deep pockets from partners, yet the stock remains priced for perfection (price-to-sales ~61x) and management's recent capital actions have increased dilution risk. Trade the squeeze between regulatory headlines and financing overhang: short with a tight stop and a mid-term horizon to captu…

GSK: A Durable Pharma Income-and-Growth Trade with Vaccine Tailwinds

GSK: A Durable Pharma Income-and-Growth Trade with Vaccine Tailwinds

GSK ($51.44) combines a resilient commercial franchise, meaningful vaccine exposure and a mid-teens P/E with a 3.4% yield. Technicals are neutral-to-bullish and the company sits squarely in expanding vaccine markets (influenza, HPV). I recommend a long trade sized for a diversified portfolio: entry $51.40, primary target $62.00, stop loss $48.00, h…
